Park the vehicle with the wheels pointing straight ahead. Loosen the front wheel lug nuts, raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Apply the parking brake. Remove the wheels. Detach the tie-rod ends from the rack and pinion. Mark the relationship of the intermediate shaft coupler to the rack and pinion input shaft, remove the pinch bolt and separate the coupler from the input shaft. Position a drain pan under the rack and pinion. Using a flare-nut wrench, disconnect the power steering pressure and return lines from the rack and pinion. Cap the lines to prevent leakage. Turn the rack and pinion to the right as far as it will go. On Durango models with 3.7L and 4.7L engines, remove the exhaust Y-pipe. On Durango models, remove the crossmember mounted in front of the rack and pinion. Remove the mounting bolts, then maneuver the rack and pinion out of the vehicle. Inspect all rubber bushings for wear and damage. If any of the rubber parts are cracked, torn or generally deteriorated, replace them. Installation is the reverse of removal, noting the following points: Tighten the rack and pinion mounting bolts and the intermediate shaft coupler pinch bolt to the torque values. Tighten the wheel lug nuts to the torque. Check the power steering fluid level and add some, if necessary, and then bleed the system. Re-check the power steering fluid level.
